On Friday we had the opening of the ‘What We Do’ exhibition at Aratoi, Masterton’s art gallery. It’s a really diverse exhibition that showcases the work of tutors at King Street Artworks. It’s on until 8th August. Here’s a closer look at my piece. Please excuse the reflection. I should have photographed it before it was framed but I was on a deadline.
